Condition

Cathedral of St. Constantine and St. Helene is in good condition. The building is well built and managed effectively, with some minor building defects, including small number of leaks and minor mortar fretting, together with aging timber joinery on the weather faces of the building. Past management practices have not detracted from the values. The Hellenic Community Centre is in fair condition. There are a number of leaks, deteriorating ceiling panels, and tiles on the façade are losing adhesion. Generally the place receives adequate maintenance, but is reaching a point where a significant amount of work will be required.
